Many Christians ask the question, “How can I grow close to God and hear Him speak to me clearly?” We may try for years and yet find we cannot hear God’s voice, see His face, or genuinely understand Him, no matter how hard we try. We begin to think that maybe He hasn’t chosen us, doesn’t care, or doesn’t speak anymore – without realising that is actually our hearts, which have been hardened over many years, that have shut God out. How do we unknowingly block God out?
Zechariah 3:7
“Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘If you will walk in My ways (Gods standard for the new level) and if you will perform My service, then you will also govern My house and also have charge of My courts, and I will grant you free access among these who are standing here.
Are you sure your ways/STANDARDS of up to God’s standard for where you desire to walk?
Do you believe that Moses thought he was qualified to enter the Promise land even though he had been used by God to lead God’s people through the Red Sea experience? Because it was Moses that struck the rock
But what gives us access to the deeper things of God? Because if truth be known no one can deny a heart anything but that heart and only God knows it.
2 Chron 26:21 - King Uzziah’s lack of access was a physical condition that hindered his ability to come closer to God.
So King Uzziah was diseased to the time of his death. He lived in quarantine with a serious skin disease and was excluded from access to the Lord’s temple, while his son Jotham was over the king’s household governing the people of the land.
